As previously announced, the Winter semester starting date for the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine will be January 4, 2021.

Therefore, learning for DVM students in years 1 to 3 will take place online for the first two weeks of the semester and will resume in-person on January 18, 2021. Clinical rotations for fourth-year students will commence as planned on January 4, 2021, while the end of the semester for DVM students remains May 1, 2021.
